<a name="idm46604976460480"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>Returns the named field from a value.</p>
<p>The template-type <code class="computeroutput">T</code> specifies the field's value type. Note that the value type must match the actual type of the field otherwise runtime compilation or logic errors may occur.</p>
<p>For example, to access the <code class="computeroutput">second</code> field in a <code class="computeroutput">std::pair&lt;int, float&gt;</code> object: </p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="identifier">field</span><span class="special">&lt;</span><span class="keyword">float</span><span class="special">&gt;</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="string">"second"</span><span class="special">)</span><span class="special">;</span>
</pre>
<p>This can also be used with vector types to access individual components as well as perform swizzle operations.</p>
<p>For example, to access the first and third components of an <code class="computeroutput">int</code> vector type (e.g. <code class="computeroutput">int4</code>): </p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="identifier">field</span><span class="special">&lt;</span><span class="identifier">int2_</span><span class="special">&gt;</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="string">"xz"</span><span class="special">)</span><span class="special">;</span>
